From Politicons.com - OFFICIAL WHITE HOUSE RESPONSE: “Uhm, er, well, umm, uhhhhhh, ummmmm, millionaires and billionaires, uh, PASS THIS BILL, uhmmm, well, er….” The TelePrompter of the United States was stolen last night, after thieves raided official White House equipment. The equipment was valued at nearly $200,000 and included several presidential seals. NBC 12 reported:NBC12 has uncovered one of those stories that makes you think: “How in the world does that happen?!” A truck filled with President Obama’s podiums and audio equipment was stolen in Henrico just days before his visit to Chesterfield. We confirmed an investigation with the U.S. Defense Department. There are still a lot of questions. The biggest one being did the thieves intentionally target the President’s truck or did they take advantage of a crime of opportunity and give a big “uh-oh” when they saw what was inside. When you see President Obama speak, there is a pretty typical setup including the presidential seal on a podium, the see-thru Teleprompter and a portable sound system. Thieves saw the truck carrying that equipment and couldn’t resist the target. Conan's spoof of the situation.
